Shri Sawariya Seth Mandir

The Sanwaliaji temples of the Dark Krishna are situated on the Chittorgarh – Udaipur Highway, at the town of Bhadsora, Mandaphiya and Chapar, about 40 kilometers from Chittorgarh. The deity also known as Shri Sanwaria Seth.

The legend has it that in the year 1840, a milkman named Bholaram Gurjar had a dream of three divine idols buried underground in the Chapar village of Bhadsoda-Bagund; on digging out the site, three beautiful idols of Lord Krishna were discovered as revealed in the dream. One of the statues was taken to Mandaphiya, one to Bhadsoda[1] and the third remained at Chapar, at the very place where it was found. All three locations became temples. These three temples are located close to each other, within the 5 km distance. The three temples of Sanwaliya Ji became renowned and devotees visit them in large numbers since then. Among these three temples, Mandaphia Temple is recognized as the Sanwalia Ji Dham (abode of Sanwaliya).
